Picture this: A perfectly seasoned ribeye steak with a crispy, spicy crust, topped with a creamy, kick-in-your-boots jalapeño sauce, served alongside garlic-smashed potatoes and grilled corn on the cob. Is your stomach growling yet? Mine sure is!
Let’s start with what you’ll need (serves 4):
– 4 ribeye steaks (about 1-inch thick)
– 4 tablespoons blackening seasoning
– 4 jalapeños (seeded if you’re feeling mild, keep ’em if you’re brave!)
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 4 cloves garlic
– 2 tablespoons butter
– Salt and pepper to taste
– A whole lotta love!

Let’s get cooking:
1. Take those beautiful steaks out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking (cold meat is a no-no, darling).
1. While you’re waiting, let’s make that heavenly sauce:
– Dice those jalapeños and garlic
– Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat
– Sauté jalapeños and garlic until soft (about 3-4 minutes)
– Pour in that heavy cream
– Let it simmer until it thickens (about 10 minutes)
– Season with salt and pepper
1. Now for the star of the show:
– Coat each steak generously with blackening seasoning
– Heat up your cast iron skillet until it’s smoking hot (literally, y’all)
– Sear those bad boys for 4-5 minutes each side for medium-rare
– Let them rest for 5-10 minutes (patience is a virtue, sweetie!)
1. Plate it up:
– Place that gorgeous steak on the plate
– Drizzle with your jalapeño cream sauce
– Add your sides
– Snap a pic for the ‘gram because this is too pretty not to share!
